3. House of Creeps

House of Creeps is a staple of the Houston house-venue scene. Contrary to popular belief, people actually live inside this "house." These guys have been putting on shows for over three years now and are one of the few underground venues that have truly cultivated an original scene.

Located just off of Nance Street, House of Creeps always brings the party atmosphere at an affordable price. Covers are rarely over $5 at HOC, and it’s one of those stages that every successful Houston band has performed at during some point of their career. They’re also known for constantly bringing in touring bands from other cities.

Like many of the other underground venues in Houston, there are literally zero genre restrictions. The gutter-punk conglomerate of Houston has a consistent presence at the venue, but it’s always a welcoming crowd. Freaks unite!
